Tourism to Israel Keeps Smashing Records

February was a record month for tourism in Israel and 2017 was a record year, with more than 3.6 million visitors, says Dana Shemesh, the Southeast U.S. director of public relations for the Israel Ministry of Tourism, reports Sarah Moosazadeh for the Atlanta Jewish Times.

Israel welcomed 949,000 tourists in the first three months of 2018, up 29% from the same quarter in 2017. The biggest increases in March came from Poland, Sweden, Spain, Germany and France.
